2nd Earl Baldwin of Bewdley

Famous quotes containing the words earl and/or baldwin:

    I am convinced that a light supper, a good night’s sleep, and a fine morning, have sometimes made a hero of the same man, who, by an indigestion, a restless night, and rainy morning, would have proved a coward.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    My Love in me and I in him,
    Conjoined by love, will till abide
    Among the faithful lilies
    Till day do break, and truth do dim
    All shadows dark and cause them slide,
    According as his will is.
    —William Baldwin (fl. 1547–1549)
